Hearing the word “cancer” is enough to send a wave of fear through anyone. It’s a word loaded with emotion, uncertainty, and concern for the future. For many, the fear is amplified by a family history of cancer or the looming question: “Am I genetically predisposed to this disease?”
At VivaLife Healing Centers, Dr. Jason Chiriano understands these concerns and is at the forefront of offering innovative solutions to ease your mind and empower your health journey. One groundbreaking tool we now offer is the Galleri™ test — a revolutionary cancer screening method that detects a shared signal from over 50 types of cancer with a single blood draw.
What is the Galleri Test?
The Galleri test is an advanced, multi-cancer early detection (MCED) test. Unlike traditional screenings that typically check for one cancer at a time (like mammograms for breast cancer or colonoscopies for colon cancer), the Galleri test looks for a unique signal present in the bloodstream that could indicate the presence of dozens of cancers, many of which currently have no routine screening methods.
With just one blood draw, the test analyzes DNA fragments shed by tumors into the bloodstream, identifying whether they might be cancerous and even pointing to the tissue of origin. This allows for earlier detection and, potentially, more effective treatment options.
Who Should Consider the Galleri Test?
While the Galleri test is not a replacement for traditional cancer screenings, it is an incredible tool for those who want a broader view of their health. It’s particularly beneficial for:
- Individuals with a family history of cancer
- Those with genetic predispositions or concerns about hidden cancers
- Patients seeking a proactive approach to their long-term health
- People over 50, when cancer risk typically increases
Why Early Detection Matters
Early detection saves lives. When cancer is found early, treatment is often less invasive, more effective, and has a significantly higher chance of success. The Galleri test provides a new layer of protection, offering peace of mind and a proactive plan for those wanting to stay one step ahead.
